Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students have been working hard all year to prepare for state testing, and now it’s their time to shine! I want to keep them excited and motivated with special snacks each day to give them an extra boost of energy and encourage them to do their best.

The snacks I’m requesting will help my students stay focused and engaged during long testing sessions.

A little treat can make a big difference in keeping their spirits high and pushing them to work even harder.

I’m so proud of how resilient and hardworking my students are, and I want them to feel supported as they show everything they’ve learned. Thank you for helping make testing a little easier and a lot more fun!
